Science is an ever-evolving entity, and every answer raises a load more questions which, in time, we discover the answers to, and so on and so forth. Modern religion sees this, and evolves with it. For every scientific discovery we find, you change your theories to suit your beliefs. You'll say "science can't prove x, therefore God exists" and when x is proven, you'll say "well science can't prove y, therefore God exists".

Don't pretend that God is the only alternative to what we don't know. The only thing God is an alternative to is logic.
Excellent post, and I like that Dark Tower quote...
